78% Waning Gibbous Moon in Color

A beautiful, high resolution capture of the 78% waning gibbous Moon from early Saturday morning, November 19, 2016. I shot this on the Frosty Drew Observatory 16" SCT at 4000mm. The image is a 7 panel panoramic with each panel comprised of 15 sub images composited. Blue regions contain high deposits of titanium, where red regions are iron poor. I shot this at Frosty Drew Observatory in Charlestown, Rhode Island, USA
